Product Information
Potassium Monopersulfate compound is a free flowing, white granular soluble in water (20oC, 256 g/L). The composition of Potassium Monopersulfate compound includes Potassium Hydrogen Peroxymonosulfate (KHSO5), Potassium Bisulfate(KHSO4) and Potassium Sulfate(K2SO4). Potassium Monopersulfate compound has relatively high oxidation reduction potential. Therefore, it is a highly effective oxidant and disinfectant.
Application
Potassium Monopersulfate compound is a stable, convenient and excellent acidity oxidant being widely used in the following industries; pool and spa, water disinfection, PCB etchant, pulp bleach, wool fabric shrink treatment agents, and metal refining agents. Potassium Monopersulfate compound is also used in organic synthesis, such as oxidizing the double bonds of organic molecules, or as an initiator in many radical polymerizations. In addition, Potassium Monopersulfate compound can oxidize the hydrogen sulfide or sulfur containing substances in wastewater, provide oxygen in aquaculture, and bleach to remove stains at a low temperature.
